About the Artist
The Propeller Group was an acclaimed art collective founded by Tuan Andrew Nguyen, Phu Nam Thuc Ha, and Matt Lucero, operating between Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and Los Angeles, USA. Their collaborative practice was highly interdisciplinary, encompassing film, video, performance, and installation, often adopting the methodologies of media production companies. The collective's work critically examined the complexities of global politics, post-colonial legacies, historical memory, and the pervasive influence of media. They frequently re-enacted historical events, engaged with commercial aesthetics, and explored the intricate relationships between commerce, conflict, and culture, challenging viewers to deconstruct prevailing narratives.
